My uncle's computer is having a real retro problem. Some of his apps are loosing their icons, and showing just the default icon. But hes in 10.2 not classic. I can't rebuild the desktop, how do you fix this problem on 10.2. Its so strange. Already checked the disk and permissions etc.

Try to delete the following files in ~/Library/Preferences :

LSApplication
LSClaimedTypes
LSSchemes

That's for 10.1. In 10.2, remove the following and reboot.

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.UserCache.csstore
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist
/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.LocalCache.csstore
